Business Research Methods chapter 1Research methods provides you with ideas, instruments and models that demonstrate how to
conduct sound research (gedegen onderzoek verricht). The study of research will provide you with
the knowledge and skills you need to solve the problems and meet the challenges of a fast-paced
decision-making environment.
Business research is a systematic inquiry (onderzoek) whose objective is to provide the information
that will allow managerial problems to be solved. Business research courses recognize that students
preparing to manage business, not-for-profit and public organizations –in al functional areas-need
training in a disciplined process that will enable (in staat stellen) them to investigate and solve a
research dilemma (i.e. any problem or opportunity that requires a management decision).
Three factors have stimulated an interest in this scientific approach to decision-making:
The need for more and better information as decisions become more complex;
The availability of improved techniques and tools to meet this need;
The resulting information overload if discipline is not employed in the process;
Factors that characterize the complex business decision making environment are:
There are more variables to consider in every decision;
More knowledge exists in every field of management;
Global and domestic competition is more vigorous (krachtig);
The quality of theories and models available is improving;

simple and the data readily available. A reporting study calls for knowledge and skill in using
information sources and dealing with their gatekeepers. Such a study usually calls for a little
in the way of inference or conclusion drawing;
Descriptive: a descriptive study tries to discover answers to the questions who, what, when,
where and, sometimes, how. The researcher attempts to describe, or define, a subject, often
creating a profile of a group of problems, people or events. Descriptive studies may or may
